This includes his own gang who starts questioning their position when Woody and Ken reveal Lotso's true intentions with his gang, making him act out in a tyrannical rage. He displays no mercy to toys that resist, oppose, and help other toys escape.

For example, as the gang run into him during their escape, he tries to convince Woody because Andy is leaving for college without taking them, he no longer cares for them. Even if other toys had nothing to do with him getting replaced. At this point, one of the toys reveals that he bullies and tells lies as he likes to do so. Now Lotso lives by having others feel his pain by telling those falling out of line that toys are nothing special and destined to be discarded with no redemption. According to Chuckles, Lotso was previously a good toy and a friend before they were accidentally abandoned and Lotso found himself subsequently replaced. This nature was brought about by his perceived betrayal from Daisy. He keeps this friendly act up until it is likely that a toy is protesting to leave, like when Buzz refuses to transfer to the Butterfly Room without taking his friends, prompting Lotso to force this potential ally onto his side particularly when he switches Buzz to demo mode which brainwashed Buzz into doing his orders as he would lose his memory due to this.īeneath this benevolent façade, Lotso is truly a ruthless, sadistic, cunning, and nihilistic dictator and prison warden, ruling Sunnyside with an iron fist and imprisoning new toys in the Caterpillar Room where they suffer the reckless young toddlers there, while he sits comfortably in the Butterfly Room. He has a charming, grandfatherly kind of demeanor and one wouldn't likely suspect him to be who he turns out to be. He made a false promise to the toys that different kids at the daycare center would continue to play with them and they would never feel unloved or rejected which was a lie as he never intended to keep that promise.

This was further emphasized by his strawberry aroma and his hugging of Buzz Lightyear (hence his name Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear) when the toys first arrived at Sunnyside Daycare. “ The guy may seem plush and huggable on the outside, but inside, he's a monster.” ― Buttercup describing Lotso to WoodyĪt first, Lotso seemed like a caring, welcoming, and friendly individual, and possessed all of the good qualities of the typical soft teddy bear character.

With a smile that will light up your child's face and a belly just asking to be hugged, Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear is sure to become a bedtime necessity. Official Description 'Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear is a jumbo, extra-soft teddy bear with a pink and white plush body and a velvety purple nose. He was found by Bonnie Anderson, who took him home. Chuckles had no part of Lotso's rule, and one day he was broken. The three hitched a ride on a Pizza Planet delivery truck's rear bumper until the truck hit a pothole in the road, knocking them off in front of Sunnyside Daycare, where Lotso took over and turned it into a prison for toys, with Big Baby as his enforcer. Chuckles tried to explain that Daisy only replaced him because she missed him so much, but Lotso refused to listen. He allowed his negative feelings to consume him, and he forcibly ordered Chuckles and Big Baby to abandon Daisy and follow him, telling them Daisy replaced them all and she no longer cares for them. Refusing to give up and lose faith, Lotso, followed by Chuckles and Big Baby, headed off into the wilderness and finally returned to Daisy's house, only to discover that Daisy had acquired another Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear toy, leaving Lotso greatly heartbroken. The three waited for a long time, but Daisy never returned for them. After lunch, Daisy fell asleep and her parents took her back into the car, accidentally leaving the toys behind. However, there was a time when Daisy took Lotso and her two other toys, a baby doll named Big Baby, and a clown named Chuckles, out for a drive with her parents and stopped at a rest stop for a little bit of playtime. Lotso seemed to have enjoyed every moment of the time spent at Daisy's house. Lotso started his life as a Christmas present for a little girl named Daisy and instantly became her favorite toy. Lotso unwrapped as a Christmas present for Daisy.
